damn, does your boost gauge even move? :D

mine should get better when i get my tune......but with tune comes a lot more mods so it'll probably still go down significantly

I am getting around 14mpg around town. The best I have gotten on the highway is 19.5 mpg but that is congested highway driving.

I drove from my house(near boston) to saracuse NY on a full tank, was a lilttle over 300 miles. I was in 6th around 2k rpms the whole ride. The gas mileage that can be achieved in this car is unreal. But when its boosting its another story, and for good reason.

210 to 250 about 13.5 gallons fill up. I am getting about 16 to 18 in the city. The last two tanks have been with the new pulley, and they have been a little aahhh low.

I average 70 MPH on the highway. This particular car is incredibly strong for some reason compared to other Cobras on the road. The tick has now gone away with the colder weather setting in. My first brake-pad change did not occur until 50,000 miles and I still had 20% of the pads left. I've been blessed getting this particular Cobra. :D

My car is a daily driver. Mostly highway driving, but some in town as well. I average slightly over 300 miles to the tank, but I really baby this car. Some of your replys make me think I'm not driving this car nearly hard enough LOL.

Yea but just think...

1. Your car is not going to be turned into a money pit because you are sensible about driving your car.....and...

2. You are sparing us from having to read the "bitch, moan and groan" posts that occur from the those who run their car into the ground and then ask why things are breaking while running around trying to find someone to sue over it. :beer:
